Improvements To Our Facility

April 28, 2015

You may have noticed some changes taking place around Golden Harvesters recently. The sign poles in our parking lot were looking pretty rusty, so we painted them gold. There’s that new ramp leading up to our entrance, of course. And, thanks to a mini grant from St. John’s Main Street, we were able to install a new security light out front. Each one of these projects is small on its own, but together they add up to big improvements for Golden Harvesters. And we literally can’t do them without you!

With the help of Depave, we removed the asphalt from two small areas in front of the co-op. Then we planted and transformed those areas into green spaces. In addition to making the storefront look more inviting, the new green spaces help with runoff from our parking lot.

St. Johns Food Share began in 1988

Working toward food security and sustainability

Reliable access to a sufficient quantity of affordable, nutritious food is the heart of our efforts. While 15% of Oregonians are food insecure, 40% of all food goes to landfills uneaten. As living costs rise, more families struggle with food insecurity. We believe working together to fight hunger and reduce food waste builds a better community.
